  1. If I'm understanding correctly the current situation is;
    "Well there's no point going into the office, if a server reset doesn't fix it we'll sort it out on Monday"
    So we potentially could have this on until Monday? Really what's the issue here? Are we really that down the pecking order that the issues we face at Dark Orbit doesn't even warrant fixing?

    In before deletion/it's been passed on. A time window would be nice. You've had dozens of tickets and I'm sure reports on other forum languages as well.

    Another issue is that spaceball cause lag .. On ge1 you have 10 seconds of lag at every movement ... ( all day was like that and you can't play ) .

    admin said in earlier post:

    " hope that when the server resets... it will resolve the matter. "

    maybe should be IF the server resets, as US West server did not do so today

    [-КАТЮША-], Support has been notified of the issue and is working on it.
    Do you have any further questions on this topic or may we close?

    Best regards,
    .-Raijin-.
     
  6. Is it being worked on or are we waiting for server reset? Which one is it?

    aaaaaaand I was right. Is there any channel of communication where complaints don't go completely unheard @ whoever is going to close this?

  7. How about this, the players that knew it was glitched continued to do it, thus knowingly abusing a glitch which is clearly against the terms of service to play this game, even after it was reporting here and to support, those players are still flying around with all the extra gate spins to use for the influence event, and all the other goodies the SB gives out they are using right now on noob players, and other non UFE to gain even more points. Not to mention on my server the top UFE clans prevented most everyone from coming near the ball and keep all the ill-gotten gains for themselves..and bragging about it in chat openly that they were abusing the glitch... CLEARLY no one at BP / DO cares that the SB glitch and the people that took advantage of this glitch has now allowed even more distance to travel for most players to try and make it to the top 100 / top 10 / top 1 position for the influence event....
     
  8. I did the spaceball for a couple hours while it was glitched, and honestly, I can make MORE stuff boxing in 4-x maps. I kept doing spaceball because it was fun, and I could interact with other people, that's the whole point of the game right?

    For those who are mad about an abused glitch, I get it, but remember most people with a pet can make more boxing per hour AND not use up sep and ammo. I think the people who did this for hours were like me, and we all were enjoying each others company / competition.
     
  9. Even with the doubler, pet, pet protocols, and extra cargo pilot points in a battle map I cannot even begin to collect the spins I can get in spaceball. In 3 hours of spaceball I have collected as many as 1600 spins. Are you telling me you can box 1600 spins in 3 hours? I think not. Imagine what the clans that dominated this last glitch collected in spins alone, not to mention all the other goodies. DO's so called glitch just made the strongest even stronger. I for the most part buy what I need (ammo, boosters, spins, etc...),when I need them but the majority of players on here don't have the means to spend money.
    Someone should have been able to address this problem long before it went on for 24 hours, especially when most of those who benefitted from this glitch will spend less money buying uri to purchase what they received for nothing.
    Once again the dominant and not so honest players win. Everyone else including DO lose. tsk tsk tsk

  10. Bridezilla, I agree with most of what you said, except spin earnings. My totals for 3 hours of SB would be around 1000 spins, that's based off 3 cargo per round, 1 round every 5 minutes, for 3 straight hours. Now honestly if I get 3 cargo or more I'm very happy. I average about 1.4, so usually 1 or 2 cargo per round, sometimes none -_- . which would give me about 6-7 hundred in 3 hours

    With boxing (no doubler, but yes pet and bio set) I can get around 200 spins combining uri and GG's per hour, so 600 for 3 hours. .......Yeah SB does pay better, but not a whopping amount more, I guess my pet is a little lazy with that cargo ? -_-

    Also on my server, mmo did it alone, and would switch off with eic and vru working together, taking turns shooting it, and mostly, people got along. It was fun from that perspective is all I'm trying to say. And yes there was a lot of fighting between mmo against eic and vru, so people used ammo, and the map was full of ships again.

    *EDIT* As for dominant clans, yeah they were there, but they coordinated the fighting/defending, and many noobs took part too, huddling on the gates waiting for cargo :rolleyes:.
